Hot Toys - TMS033 & TMS034 - The Mandalorian: Boba Fett (Regular and Deluxe versions)

[yy0925]

Yes, I have the ESB Boba Fett, which is already bad ***.

This set looks great too. But I can't/don't want to own two Boba Fetts. Really struggling with myself...

Be careful, you'll find your repenting on eBay later...and at greater cost. This is grail set and I really think the value (despite HT making a million of them) will hold and increase once it's no longer available.

DEW IT

I currently own five[!] Bobas and the with throne version isnt here yet, not including him. I will own two Mandos, at least. I will probably end up with two Echos and who knows who else. MULTIPLES COLLECTORS UNITE

I like them both equally look wise. They both tell a different story with the character, define very distinct eras for the character.

The ESB is the OG Boba…the armour he wore that inspired all our imaginations. A mysterious bounty hunter that wasn’t afraid of Vader and tracked down and captured Han Solo. Also, ESB is my favourite SW movie and one of my all time favs.

Tusken Boba, specifically from Mando S2, is the return of this character. He is full of rage and contempt against the Empire, his main goal to regain his armour. And when he puts on that now fully damaged armour….what a return.

I think if anything these two (or three with the DLX) tell that full story of Boba for me. Great representation of the character. I think both his intro in Empire and Mando S2 representations are the heights of Boba Fett in live action.

 

[Ramatuelle]

So what do you guys think? Is this THE ultimate Boba Fett figure?

Its close. Personally, the ESB strikes me as most classic, this is what you picture when you think of Boba Fett.

This set is next in line, tho.

This is so well said @bebe13junior - the 2-pack Boba is a must have, from the unboxing and all that comes with it, I have to say you cannot pass on this if you appreciate this character. Anyone hesitant on this, go get it before it’s gone!

Just cancelled my pre-order with Alter Ego if anyone wants it. Too many Star Trek figures coming from EXO-6 I’d rather have instead.

 

[FlyAndFight]

I'm still patiently waiting for my set to arrive from Alter Ego Comics. Living vicariously through these amazing pictures, keep them coming...

Me too. I'm hoping they receive their allotment soon from Sideshow.

Preordered this a while ago. My hype died down in the meantime after the show was a bit of a stinker. I almost cancelled, but the order was already processed. Wasn't even overly excited to unbox. But I gotta say, after getting him out and putting him in a cool pose, it's actually quite a cool figure. Looks nice and hefty with the jetpack and armour. I considered selling, but I think I'll hang onto him. Besides, it's technically a Mando season 2 figure haha.

I didn't go with the set; just the armoured figure. If you asked me last year, I would've said I was 100% going to track down a Morrison headsculpt to use, but after the show, I'd rather pretend he's not the same character. Helmeted it is

 

[DuskRaider]

Just got my two pack in today and... wow. What an amazing piece(s)! Hot Toys have definitely outdone themselves and Re-Armoured Fett may just be my favorite figure in my collection now. This was easily my most anticipated purchase yet and I've been collecting for quite some time. I'll have to take a picture of all the Fetts in my collection soon, I'll even do them chronologically.

Customer service said hopefully end of April to mid May, we’ll see.

Presumably they overproduced this set (maybe expecting BoBF was gonna be good) as you can get if locally brand new for USD 340 no problems.

Where locally? Comic book stores haven’t received theirs yet.

Hong Kong. The price keeps inching down on this set in the secondary market. They are brand new sets though. Quite surprising.

 

[jedibear]

Maybe they saw the show...

 

[Deinonychus]

I can see this set going up in price a lot though, if I had the space I’d buy 10 at that price and hold.
On the other hand the mustard trooper is going for as little as 130 USD new but I think it’ll remain a stinker.

To be fair I almost regret the 2 pack now, don’t need the headsculpt or Tusken Boba but I like the bases it comes with.

Oh well. That's not too bad.
